Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I hope you ate wrong but sooner or later Trump will make anyone not kissing his orange ass a enemy of the state. Thats why he is calling for Newsime to be arrested, to exercise his authority over his enemies
sooner or later Trump will make anyone not kissing his orange ass a enemy of the state
Isn't this happening already? I guess it depends on how you define "make someone an enemy of the state".
I mean Federal Law Enforcement actively attempting to arrest and detain people who just speak out against Trump.
We’re not there yet, but just wait for a couple of months. We’ll be there soon.
Goodness...
Experts question the legality of the (something the US government does)
Such a small sentence. We hear it so often these days yet not enough people stop to think what it really means.
It almost goes without saying, but I'll quote it nevertheless:
it is unclear under what authority Trump and the Defense Department did so
(...)
The Posse Comitatus Act bars federal troops from participating in civilian law enforcement.
And this:
“Military presence is not needed. The state is already working with local partners to surge 800+ additional state and local law enforcement officers into Los Angeles to clean up President Trump’s mess,” Tara Gallegos, a spokesperson for Newsom, told The Intercept by email.
Though I'm sure many frame it as California government "being on the rioters side"
